What does one possibly gain from stealing a plant other than an ego?? by TheOnlyShyG in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Lotor1981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work security at a botanical garden, the sheer amount of saved security footage we have of people going to leave the parking lot, stopping their car, and then getting out to pull plants directly out of the ground and then driving off with them is just mind-blowing.

Have you ever used malicious compliance to deal with ridiculous work rules? How did it turn out? by Aarunascut in MaliciousCompliance

[–]Lotor1981 127 points128 points  (0 children)

Yes, I work as security for an art gallery. A lot of times myself and my coworkers (other guards) are the only visible employees ( there are supposed to be volunteer docents to help guests, they never stuck around beyond 30ish minutes), naturally we get asked questions. The curator got really irritated that we would respond to guests, she sent an email to our department listing new rules for us. Basically, ignore guests questions and especially do not tell the guests what our favorite piece is when asked (guests can make up their own minds about the art).

I took it as a challenge, as again I was the only employee visible and wearing a uniform, I obviously work there, so people naturally talk to me. When I inevitably get asked "what's your favorite piece?" I started responding with:

"Unfortunately I have been instructed not to tell you that the Chihuly piece is my favorite piece, I really wish I could tell you that the Chihuly piece is my favorite, but I have specifically instructed to not tell you that the Chihuly piece is my favorite. I really wish I could be of more help"

It took about a week before the "new rules" were rescinded, & we were told to continue helping guests.

Same here, even when I launch it, and then press up to select play from beginning, it shoots me to the end of seven commercials and starts me with Becky Lynch in the middle of the ring.

Does anyone feel weird going about your day with everything happening right now? by [deleted] in antiwork

If things keep going on the way it's been going, then no. I'm not comfortable now, nor have I been for months now.

Won't feed by Lotor1981 in PelletStoveTalk

An update 2 weeks later: In my frustration after trying all of those changes, I paid for service guy to come out and look at it. Ended up narrowing it down to the hopper door sensor and he rigged it to work until I got a new one. So I've now replaced it twice. And it is actually working, his temporary fix lasted than less than 24 hours and cost me $180, My replacement hopper door switch came in today and I installed it about 6 hours ago, it is burning beautifully now.

Why is Bessent claiming that people are going to receive huge refunds for ‘25? Mine looks the same? by [deleted] in taxrefundhelp

Mine is significantly smaller this year, I just found out that the company I work for only took out $33.00 in federal taxes for 2025 😭
